Regardless, you will notice an improvement in your speeds and overall with any 3.0 modem, especially if they fully support it which it looks like they absolutely do. There is a newer model out but, the tech says sometimes customers have issues ill link it. Also a thread I noticed from their customer support forum popped up and a tech confirmed you can use your own and said they have good compatibility with the SB6120 Motorola. From what I checked real quick I'm pretty sure they gave you a 2.0 as there terms dictate 3.0 comes with 50mbps plan or higher. Just google the name & model # of the modem they gave you and it will list the DOCSIS specification in the product description even if it is a proprietary modem for them. You said you were getting 30-35mbps at once place so that means your connection to the net is good, if no matter where you always got say 4-5mbps then you'd have a real problem. For instance a solid test would be to go download something from microsoft's website, download a large file and you should average around 30mbps. netflix.Īlso on those speedtest's you also have servers that have higher latency than others as well as bigger backbones. Now it's really a matter of what your using it for, video streaming should be no problem ex. That was the more technical answer, simply you achieved speeds equal to what you paid for, so you know you can achieve those speeds. Also your going to have different speeds fluctuating with times/distances and the servers uplink so it will always vary. for instance trying to download a file in Europe at 30mbps/plan and only getting 5mbps from complaining. They do this for several reasons and really not to screw you over, but it prevents things like a person in the U.S. Meaning your isp and obviously your closest hop on the way to the internet is the speed they really look at. Because in the end, their only required to give you say up to 30mbps to them. So the tech comes over because you complain, now buried in most contracts that I've ever seen and it's pretty much a standard is that they will usually test the speed using their own speedtest. The next tactic is say you are averaging for example like you said 5-6mbps on a 30mbps plan. Unfortunately the way the majority of these companies get away with a stunt such as only getting half your bandwidth you paid for is the wording "up to xxmbps". Any comments will be greatly appreciated. I am trying to keep an eye on netflix streaming, online game play to determine any speed issue, but I wanted to ask you guys what is your opinion on these varying results. I always used Speakeasy as my benchmark, but I am not so sure now. So, I was all set to complain about my speed, but these varying speed tests are confusing the heck out of me. Mostly, shows about 25 Mbps, but will frequently cross 30 Mbps. But with Dallas, it jumps around a bit, but never goes below 20 Mbps. Verizon's speed test does not have a Chicago option. (never heard of it before - just popped up in Bing search) shows 5 - 6 Mbps with Chicago as server. This is a very good performance (getting what I paid for), but is also the IPS recommended speed test site.Ĭomcast xinfinity shows 30 - 35 Mbps with Chicago as server. consistently shows around 30 - 35 Mbps with a server in Arora, IL (which is practically Chicago.I think). This is a VERY abysmal performance if we go by Speakeasy. I live about 200 miles south of Chicago, which would make it my nearest server. With a California server, it shows about 14 - 15 Mbps consistently. speedtest consistently shows 5 - 6 Mbps download with Chicago server. But here is what confusing the heck out of me: This time, I am determine to fight this - done rolling over. I had issues before where I was not getting even half the speed and I suffered two years. I paid for 30 Mbps speed and so wanted to make sure that I am getting that. If you'd like to run a speed test on your client devices (phones, computers, laptops, etc.) to test your network speeds, there are many available resources, including We typically check more than one speed test service, if possible, to ensure that your results are accurate.I just got new internet connection with Mediacom (moved houses).
For this reason, the speeds represented in the app will not change as you move around your home.
The speed test in the eero app represents the speed between your gateway eero and the modem it is connected to the test isn't the speed between your eero and the device the eero application is running on.
